CLUB: MORFAR GINKO
Morfar Ginko’s clubbing schedule is starting to get back into full flow as the autumn draws in. This weekend they’ve put on a very special line-up, with heavy dub and airy techno from Sissel Wincent and Petitchoux confirmed for Friday with weird beats from Lil’ Miso & Softguy and Sam Clayton + Stefan Kits on Saturday.
CLUB: HOKUS POKUS
Hokus Pokus is a club night that started off in Gothenburg a few years ago, aiming to promote female and non-binary DJ talents within the club scene. After success in Gothenburg, they’re now finally making their Stockholm debut. They’ll be at Laika for the first time on Friday, with plans in place to have the club on a monthly basis after that. The line-up for the opening night is headed up by Josefine Hellström Hansson, whose range goes from house to techno to groove to a whole lot else. She’ll be joined on the decks by arranger Christine Friberg. Hellström Hansson told Nöjesguiden: “I feel so excited and honoured to be playing at the premiere of this great concept. Christine is such a genuine person and arranger who is passionate about what she does, which is reflected in her project. That’s why I’m super happy to be back in Stockholm in associated with Hokus Pokus”.
EXHIBITION: WAVELENGTH
I fell asleep during physics class a lot, but even I remember that a wavelength is “wavelength is a measure of distance between two identical peaks (high points) or troughs (low points) in a wave“, the journey from a high to a high or a low to a low. In other words, a complete journey through the entire range of a spectrum. It’s the more philosophical implications of that concept that inspires artist Julius Göthlin’s new exhibition at Belenius. The Stockholm-based artist’s exhibition WAVELENGTH consists of works that aim to explore the space between the peaks and the troughs of modern society, to find meaning independence of the artificial impressions that movement between peaks and troughs creates. It’s now open at Belenius.
Sep 21-21, Belenius
